Supercharged unemployment benefits expired 9 days ago and Senate Republicans still dont have a real plan to replace them. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

We are 92 days away from the 2020 election and Donald Trump and Mitch McConnell are still forcing Americans to choose between their health and their right to vote by blocking nationwide #VoteByMail. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

.@SenSchumer and I have a bill to do exactly this. Senate Republicans are blocking it. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

The Democratic-controlled House passed a bill to renew unemployment benefits months ago. The American people aren’t buying your lies. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Since Mitch McConnell clearly feels no urgency to address the lapse in unemployment benefits, I suggest he spend his weekend talking to one of the 30 million Americans about to lose their income. Maybe after that he’ll be willing to negotiate. https://t.co/yBiahnjt3c — PolitiTweet.org

Donald Trump will go down in history for turning a public health crisis into a culture war and endangering Americans’ lives. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

One Oregon home health care nurse told @SenateFinance they have so few disinfectant wipes that they are cutting them in quarters to last the week. This is the reality of Trump’s failure to address this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Thanks to Donald Trump, our country is staring down the barrel of yet another PPE shortage for our nation’s health care providers. At @SenateFinance hearings this week, I shared stories from Oregonians experiencing this firsthand. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

.@MarkWarner and I are leading Senate Intel Committee Dems to demand answers about this. The Trump administration must be held accountable for weaponizing a system intended to target terrorists, against journalists shedding light on government abuses. https://t.co/TyP2cWGM0U — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

It’s no coincidence that as a record number of Americans are set to vote by mail this November, Donald Trump is doing everything in his power to sabotage the U.S. Postal Service. Trump is suppressing votes to steal an election. https://t.co/8fYRkgBCQx — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Our society is relying on technology and electronic resources in unprecedented ways. Should the lawsuit against @internetarchive succeed, it will jeopardize critical access to books and online learning tools for millions of students and people with disabilities. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

For months, Senate Republicans sat on their hands unwilling to work with Democrats to #ExtendUI. Now they’re offering a proposal that’s so heartless even Cruella de Vil wouldn’t endorse it. https://t.co/yyTZoJVmFK — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Reminder that the Trump administration and Senate Republicans have had *months* to come up with a plan to renew these benefits. They chose not to. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

These are the musings of a wannabe tyrant. I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again: every Republican Senator that voted against removing Trump from office is responsible for his escalating abuses of power. Election Day is November 3rd. Trump and his armed goons won’t change that. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Proud to team up with Black leaders in Oregon working to address racial inequality & make systemic change in health care, policing & more. All in with the Reimagine Oregon Project: https://t.co/qgUnnpP2bE — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

I’m especially concerned there’s no specific timeline for a full withdrawal of Bill Barr and Donald Trump’s minions. That’s a loophole big enough to drive an armored personnel carrier through. Bottom line, this occupation should never have happened. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

From Day One, I have pressed the Trump administration to withdraw its occupying army from my hometown. I will watchdog today’s announcement to ensure that it happens, and is not the administration’s usual penchant for fiction. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Anthony Tata is unfit to serve at DOD. He is so extreme I can’t be confident that he would uphold the Posse Comitatus Act if Donald Trump illegally ordered the military to start policing Portland’s streets and assaulting peaceful Black Lives Matter protestors in my hometown. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Happy National #VoteByMail day! Voting by mail is the safest, easiest way to vote. Make sure you request your ballot and turn it in early to make your voice heard this November. 📨📪 — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Donald Trump and Bill Barr are engaging in voter suppression so they can steal an election. When I say that by opposing #VoteByMail they are holding your vote hostage, I’m not exaggerating. That’s their endgame. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Donald Trump’s vendetta against Portland has no basis in reality. It’s clear that Trump and Bill Barr’s paramilitary forces are doing far more to inflame violence than bring peace to our streets. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Republicans are lying when they claim that giving a lifeline to unemployed workers will keep people unemployed. The truth is they'd rather give the mega-rich a write off for three martini lunches than help the unemployed. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

A real leader would work to bring peace to our communities, not incite violence. This escalation in Portland and cities nationwide is going to lead to more chaos and conflict. When it does, Donald Trump will have only himself to blame. https://t.co/6ZhPSlUD4l — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

True to form, Republicans are trying to gut Social Security and Medicare in the middle of a pandemic. This bill doubles down on using secret, closed-door panels to undo these earned benefits. I will oppose any bill that includes a fast lane to cut Social Security and Medicare. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Today this fierce warrior made his final journey to D.C. I can think of no better way to honor @repjohnlewis’s memory and legacy than by passing the John Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Republicans want to slash Americans’ unemployment benefits and act like they’re doing workers a favor. The American people aren’t falling for it. Workers need a full extension of supercharged unemployment benefits NOW. https://t.co/eQK6c57BuT — PolitiTweet.org

Republicans are fighting harder to protect business lunch write offs than they are to protect SNAP so vulnerable kids can eat. Let that sink in. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

4. Work overtime to cut taxes for multinational corporations instead of helping the unemployed pay rent and buy groceries Senate Republicans' “plan” is nothing more than a blueprint for ignoring the needs of workers and our economy. — PolitiTweet.org

Ron Wyden @RonWyden

Mitch McConnell's Blueprint for Unemployment Cruelty: 1. Embrace a lapse in unemployment benefits 2. Convince workers they're doing them a favor by cutting their benefits 3. Argue that workers who are unemployed due to #COVID19 don't want to work — PolitiTweet.org
